Lolly and Ted – 5 reasons to personalise a gift this Christmas
If you’re struggling
to think of a perfect
present for family,
friends or a Secret
Santa, Lynsey
Manning from online

based in Thrapston,
unwraps the joy of personalised Christmas gifting.
Finding the perfect gift can sometimes feel like trying to find a needle in a haystack. The easy answer is to give something personal, so here is my top 5 reasons to give a personalised gift this Christmas.
1.It shows you’ve put thought into
choosing their gift. If ‘it’s the thought that counts’, then that’s definitely true of personalised gifts.
2.It’s a memorable gift that they’ll treasure.
Personalised gifts often have a story behind them. They remind you of a happy
time or a special Christmas.
3.Create your own ‘personal’ Christmas traditions. The festive season is really exciting when it’s with your own home- grown family. It’s all about having fun and making memories.
4.Personalised gifts are suitable for everyone. Let’s face it, there’s always at least one person that’s incredibly difficult to buy a gift for.
5.No one else will have bought the same gift. There’s nothing more demoralising than buying someone the best gift ever, only to find that one of their other friends has bought them exactly the same thing. Of course, buying them a personalised or handmade gift avoids any embarrassment and you know it will be treasured.
Happy shopping!
